The Heavenly Realm Under Duress

Heaven.

In just over a month, the spiritual Spiritual Qi in this world has become increasingly abundant.

Especially in Profound Heaven Prefecture.

The elites from each state have been gathered by the Profound Heaven Alliance and are cultivating in Profound Heaven Prefecture.

The progress is very rapid.

Huo Ling'er and Mu Qianning's cultivation levels are almost at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm.

The two of them were so blessed by Li Fan that every time they visited, they were given Enlightenment Tea, Peaches of Immortality, and Sacred Medicine, making their talents already unparalleled.

Moreover, even a casual word or two of guidance from Li Fan on a regular basis would make them far surpass ordinary people.

At this moment, they are discussing matters with the Yuanyang Holy Lord and others.

Now, everyone in the Heavenly Realm reveres Senior Li, the Lord of the Heavenly Realm. Managing such a large group is a demanding task for them.

"Reporting to the Alliance Leader, a void sea vessel has been suddenly detected beyond the realm and is approaching the Celestial Realm!"

Just then, a voice suddenly came from outside the Taiyan Holy Land.

Upon hearing this, Huo Ling'er and the others from the Taiyan Holy Land came out.

"What's going on? Are they friend or foe?"

Huo Ling'er asked a question.

Since the great battle with the Diming Realm, the Celestial Realm has deployed personnel to guard the inner side of the boundary wall and keep a close watch on the situation outside the realm in order to be vigilant.

"We don't know yet! But the message they sent says they're from the Di Ning Realm and want to enter the Celestial Realm, saying... they're here to find someone to play chess with!"

"You want to challenge all the chess players in our Profound Heaven Realm!"

The messenger spoke.

Upon hearing this, Huo Ling'er, Mu Qianning, and the others were all puzzled.

Looking for someone to play chess with?

What's going on?

"The Di Ning Realm... I've never heard of this realm before."

Huo Ling'er murmured.

The Yuanyang Holy Lord then suggested:

"Alliance Leader, since they only have one warship and have specifically stated that they've come looking for an opponent, why not let them in and test their strength?"

Huo Ling'er nodded and said, "Let them in."

"Furthermore, immediately go and invite the Three Chess Saints of Tianyan of the Earth Wind Realm, Miss Mu Chenxi of the Profound Array Sect, as well as Lu Xing, the Little Chess Saint of the Earth Origin Realm, and Xiao Yan of Yellow Heaven Prefecture!"

Since the opponent has come to challenge the way of chess, we must find a master to fight against them!

The last game in Yellow Heaven Prefecture produced a group of top players, and they can be put to use this time.

"Yes, sir!"

Several subordinates immediately left.

Outside the boundary wall.

A Golden Immortal stepped out from behind the boundary wall and stretched out his hand, saying:

"I have been ordered to invite you all to enter the Heavenly Realm!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenyuan, the Grand Elder of the Chess Immortal Sect, frowned immediately on the ship!

"The Celestial Realm? How dare you!"

They came from a great world within the Earth Character Realm, and knew more about the affairs of the First Heavenly Realm.

That's taboo. How dare someone in such a remote and insignificant place call themselves that? Aren't they afraid of death?

However, Chen Xuanbei, who was standing next to him, lit up when he heard those two words!

"As expected of the place I've been looking for! It must be special!"

He murmured to himself, then immediately said, "Let's go inside!"

The naval vessel immediately sailed into the boundary wall.

"Something's not right here... How can such a small world have such a rich aura of immortal energy?"

As soon as they crossed the boundary wall, a look of surprise flashed across Zhou Wenyuan's old face.

The atmosphere here... is anything but ordinary!

The density of the immortal spiritual energy is almost comparable to that of their Di Ning Realm!

However, it must be understood that the Di Ning Realm is a vast world within the Earth Character Realm.

It is second only to the Three Great Heavenly Realms.

"It's the strange that makes it interesting!"

Chen Xuanbei became increasingly excited. After obtaining the Boundless Chessboard, he could also subdue this realm and make it the first realm where he established his Dao Lineage!

All of this is a gift that God prepared for him, the protagonist.

What does it mean to be the chosen one? I am the chosen one!

"Gentlemen, in the Celestial Realm, the two leaders of the Profound Heaven Alliance are in charge of important matters. Please follow me."

At this moment, the Golden Immortal, who was in charge of leading the way, spoke up.

They then followed the golden immortal towards Profound Heaven Prefecture.

Profound Heaven Prefecture.

At this moment, many experts in the Taiyan Holy Land are already on high alert.

The three great chess masters of Tianyan, Mu Chenxi, the Little Chess Saint Lu Xing, and Yellow Heaven Prefecture and Xiao Yan, who made a name for themselves at the time, were all invited.

Lu Xing, the Little Chess Saint, still has white hair and looks like an old man. Last time, he consumed his life essence, which cannot be replenished.

Xiao Yan, on the other hand, had an expectant look on his face.

"I am the protagonist of this world!"

"Although we were defeated by Lu Rang last time, it was only because he had powerful backers!"

"This time, I will seize this opportunity to perform well. With Elder Yang's help, I am sure to achieve a resounding victory, and then... I will most likely gain the favor of the Lord of the Heavenly Realm!"

"At that time, I will still be the protagonist of this world... and I will be the only protagonist of this world!"

He thought to himself.

He had been looking for an opportunity ever since his last setback in Yellow Heaven Prefecture.

They wanted to pay their respects to the Supreme Being behind Lu Rang and Dugu Yuqing.

He believed that once they met, someone like him, destined to be the protagonist, would win the other's favor and be taken as an apprentice.

This challenge to the Heavenly Realm presents a golden opportunity.

We must seize this opportunity!

The others, however, were discussing it amongst themselves.

"Heh, I heard that the people who came this time actually want to challenge the chess way of the Heavenly Realm?"

The old chess master, Bai Yizi, sneered and said, "You've really come here to die."

"That's right, the Celestial Chess Path is definitely considered quite good among the millions of beings in the lower realms. The opponent has bitten off more than they can chew."

"Let them see what we've got!"

The others also spoke up.

"Guests from the Di Ning Realm have arrived!"

At that moment, a loud shout rang out.

The Void Sea Ship has arrived.

The Mountain Protecting Great Array of the Taiyan Holy Land was immediately activated!

The Void Sea Ship landed immediately, and the group from the Chess Immortal Sect arrived at the gate of the Taiyan Holy Land.

"Holy Son, this realm is no ordinary place, and this Profound Heaven Prefecture is even more extraordinary. The immortal Spiritual Qi within the prefecture is comparable to that of our Di Ning Realm... Something's amiss; you must be careful!"

Elder Zhou Wenyuan reminded him again.

He is rather cautious.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine. Besides, there aren't even any Taiyi Golden Immortals in this realm, so what do you have to fear?"

Chen Xuanbei, however, was quite casual.

In his view, this realm was incredibly rich, but the natives were all weaker than the last.

If it weren't for the need to first locate the Boundless Chessboard, he would have almost wanted Zhou Wenyuan to use his Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivation to destroy this realm, making it easier for him to take over.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenyuan nodded, perhaps he had been overly cautious.

Chen Xuanbei immediately stepped forward, followed by Zhou Wenyuan and several elders. The Discarded Holy Son Jiang Li and Wu Dade, who was holding a black suckling pig, also followed.

"May I ask who is in charge here?"

Zhou Wenyuan immediately looked at the people from the Taiyan Holy Land.

Huo Ling'er led her people forward to greet them.

The Yuanyang Holy Lord began to introduce:

"These two are the leaders of the Profound Heaven Alliance, Goddess Huo Ling'er and Qianning Goddess. May I ask where you have come from and what brings you here?"

Zhou Wenyuan said calmly:

"I am Zhou Wenyuan, the Grand Elder of the Chess Immortal Sect in the Di Ning Realm. This is Saint Child Chen Xuanbei of my sect!"

He stretched out his hand towards Chen Xuanbei and said, "My Holy Son's chess skills are unparalleled, and he is invincible in the Di Ning Realm. Therefore, I have searched all the heavens for a worthy opponent!"

"I am passing through this realm today and have come to challenge the chess players of this realm!"

"If anyone can surpass even half a son of my sect's Holy Son, these things will be yours."

He waved his hand, and two elders behind him took out two large, gold-lacquered boxes from their spatial rings!

Upon opening it, one finds all sorts of treasures inside!

This includes fragrant spirit medicine, magical Law Treasure radiating powerful immortal energy, and top-grade Spirit Stone!

Extremely valuable!

Upon seeing this, everyone in Profound Heaven Prefecture was startled!

"A challenge to all realms... What a grand ambition!"

"To be able to produce so many treasures at once, they must come from the Great World."

"If only we could win these treasures."

Everyone spoke up.

The Yuanyang Holy Lord frowned and said:

What if we lose?

He considered things deeply, focusing on failure rather than victory.

After all, Chen Xuanbei must have extraordinary abilities to dare to challenge chess players from so many worlds.

Of course, in reality, everyone in Profound Heaven Prefecture understood... that defeat was impossible, after all, the Lord of the Heavenly Realm was a terrifying being capable of guiding an immortal through a single game of chess...

But we can't bother those important figures with every little thing.

"Rest assured, our sect's Holy Son only seeks a battle. If you are defeated, it's nothing..."

Zhou Wenyuan immediately spoke.

However, before he could finish speaking, Chen Xuanbei smiled faintly and said:

"If no one can defeat me, you will all follow me from now on, becoming my slaves. In this world, I will be your master."

There is indeed no penalty for losing a game of chess to him before reaching this level.

But that's because there's nothing in those lower realms that he values; what use would they be to him?

This one is different.

This place is very likely to contain the Boundless Chessboard, and it also possesses such a rich aura of immortality... It is destined to be my blessed land and the place where I attain enlightenment!

How can one not accept a gift from Heaven?

These words shocked everyone present!

"You have quite the audacity!"

The Yuanyang Holy Lord immediately shouted coldly!

"Lord of the Heavenly Realm? You dare to be worthy?!"

"You madman, you want me and your servants to be your slaves? You're dreaming!"

"What do you think you are?!"

Everyone in Profound Heaven Prefecture roared in unison!

The other party is so arrogant and condescending; it's simply outrageous.

Moreover, he actually dared to dream of the Lord of the Heavenly Realm?!

These four words are nothing short of faith for the beings in the celestial realm today!

Such arrogance from the other party is an intolerable transgression and offense to all beings in the celestial realm.

Even Mu Qianning's pretty face flushed red with anger as she said:

"Hateful!"

Even Zhou Wenyuan, the Grand Elder of the Chess Immortal Sect, was somewhat surprised and said:

"Holy Son, you..."

Chen Xuanbei coldly replied, "What, are you going to question my decision?"

Zhou Wenyuan was immediately startled and said:

"How dare I, an old man!"

"Rest assured, Holy Son, this realm belongs to you alone; you will surely become its ruler!"

He thought to himself, "At worst, I'll just kill everyone and give this world to the Holy Son as a gift!"

We absolutely cannot upset the Holy Son; he is a reborn being!

Chen Xuanbei looked at Huo Ling'er and Mu Qianning with a cold smile and said:

"Two beauties, don't worry, follow me, I'll make you happy to death."

"It is your honor to follow me."

Huo Ling'er's beautiful eyes darkened; the other party was simply going too far!

"Such a bet is simply unfair!"

Huo Ling'er said:

"If you win, you can possess the Heavenly Realm; if you lose, you only have to give up those treasures?"

Chen Xuanbei said proudly:

"What do you think would be fair? Name your terms."

He was dismissive; it was a sure win for him anyway!

Huo Ling'er stared at him and said, word by word:

"If you lose, you die!"

Die!
